How does a vertical lift work?
Vertical lifts move vertically alongside the stairs, unlike stairlifts that travel along a rail system on the stairs. They resemble elevators, as seen on construction sites. These lifts feature a platform that is well-suited for wheelchair users or individuals with mobility aids. The user controls the lift themselves, retaining control throughout. Upon reaching the destination, the lift stops level with the landing, facilitating easy exit with or without a wheelchair.

Where can a vertical platform lift be installed?
Vertical lifts are very flexible and can be installed indoors or outdoors, often without a shaft. Usually, only minor structural changes are necessary. Due to their compact size, they fit well next to terraces, balconies, or stairs, improving access. They are suitable, for example, for entrance areas with steps or gardens beneath terraces. Share your situation with us, and our staff will find the best solution for you.
Accessibility for everyone
A vertical lift features a platform and is used to vertically overcome small heights up to 3 meters. Garaventa Lift's vertical lifts are the ideal stairlift solution for wheelchair users and all individuals who have difficulty navigating different levels due to steps. The lifts are versatile and can be installed both indoors and outdoors without the need for a shaft.
